The Deal that the American elites chose to make with China has a precedent in the history between Athens and Sparta. Lee Smith explains the players and why.
In November a video circulated on social media purporting to document a public speech given by the head of a Chinese think tank close to the Beijing government. “Trump waged a trade war against us,” he told a Chinese audience. “Why couldn’t we handle him? Why is that between 1992 and 2016, we always resolved issues with the U.S.? Because we had people up there. In America’s core circle of power, we have some old friends.” The appreciative crowd laughed along with him. “During the last three to four decades,” he continued, “we took advantage of America’s core circle. As I said, Wall Street has a very profound influence … We used to rely heavily on them. Problem is they have been declining since 2008. Most importantly after 2016 Wall Street couldn’t control Trump … In the U.S.-China trade war they tried to help. My friends in the U.S. told me that they tried to help, but they couldn’t. Now with Biden winning the election, the traditional elites, political elites, the establishment, they have a very close relationship with Wall Street.”

But…the genie is out of the bottle. One more thing bad orange man has done. No politician can act as if China is a benevolent competitor. Everyone knows they are the biggest competitor/adversary/enemy.

If you listen closely to the video (The Mandarin translation has been verified) the speaker is not shy at all about the horrible racial slur he makes about the powerful and wealthy China friendly Jewish woman who took care of things for his group in a Washington visit. She is likely close to Feinstein. Speaks fluent Mandarin, has been a resident of China for over 35 years.
The speaker is not confessing anything but rather bragging about how easy it is to buy American influence. It’s a terrifying message of the control the CCP has over our politicians and Wall St.

Not remotely surprised in either instance. Over the past three decades, I’ve cultivated a fairly broad range of Chinese friends, acquaintances and business contacts. Both of my sons speak Mandarin. And the two prior paragraphs are completely correct, and what’s more, the Chinese I know are very up front about both: (a) The Chinese are virulently racist, at least compared with present-day Americans. or, in other words, they’re about the same as any other homogenous culture across time and geographies and (b) the Chinese — like all other cultures — try to accumulate influence at all levels for the betterment of their society, culture and companies. And they are flat out amazed that we’re not like that, because the rest of the world doesn’t give a damn about the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
